We live in Valley, AL, 20 minutes from Auburn and Opelika. Lake Harding and Lake West Point are closer for us than Lake Martin. Harding prices went out the roof several years ago. West Point is a Corps of Engineering lake, and also the dregs of the Chattahoochee flow from Atlanta, so we don't want to live there. We checked out Wedowee a couple of years ago and the prices there are steep also. In addition, Wedowee is pretty isolated (yes, more so than Martin in places), so I'm not comfortable living there at this time. There are rumors that there will be a new development on Wedowee in the next few years - one that will be similar to StillWaters. I have no solid data on that though.

We've looked at/for places on Martin for over 30 years, and never thought we could afford one without going into a lot of debt. We finally bought a place last year and got a good deal. Will we be able to sell it and move into something we like more? Doubtful, unless we go into more debt. Because - as our investment has doubled in the last year, so has every other piece of property.

I don't know how the regular person will afford to have a place on Lake Martin within a few years either. It's almost out of reach now for most of us.

Just my 2 cents worth...
